Tuesday, January 21, 1919 THE DAILY IOWAN STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA PAGE THREE WILLIAM FAVERSHAM AND MAXINE ELLIOTT The appearance of William Faversham and Maxine Elliott in "Lord and Lady Algy," a comedy in three acts by R.C. Carton, at the Englert theater Tuesday, Jan. 21, is the social and theatrical event of the season. William Faversham will be seen in his original role of the Lord Algernon Chetland, which he acted during the early days of his career with Charles Frohman's Empire Theatre company. Maxine Elliott appears as Lady Algy, in which her beauty and talents are seen to their best advantage. The supporting company includes Mary Compton, Robert Ayrton, Frederick Lloyd, Philip Leigh, Erville Alderson, Harvey Hays, Percy Waram, Franklyn Fox, Maud Hosford, Eleanor Benedict, Emily Fitzroy, Frederick Raymond, Herbert Belmore, H. Jess Smith and others. "Lord and Lady Algy' is Sheridanesque in style and manner. It has to do with the upper class sporting circles in England. Lord and Lady Algy have separated because of lack of ready money and difference of opinion as to the value of race horses and cigarettes. They are still in love with each other and a reconciliation seems possible, when Quarmby, Algy's elder brother, begins a flirtation with Mrs. Tudway, which involves Algy. Algy gets all the blame and is complicated in the matter through his efforts to aid Quarmby and to save Mrs. Tudway from an indiscretion. Having lost all his money at the race track, he gives up hope of winning his wife back again, but she finds out the true state of affairs and takes a hand in the game in time to straighten out the situation and persuade Algy to start life over again. The play has been produced under the personal direction of William Faversham, who is one of the few actor-manager on the stage today. Algy is one of his most successful roles. Miss. Elliott is said to be more beautiful than ever as Lady Algy to beautiful than ever as Lady Algy and to have established herself as the premiere drawing-room comedienne of the English-speaking stage. --Adv.
